“When the breath wanders the mind also is unsteady. But when the breath is calmed the mind too will be still, and the yogi achieves long life. Therefore, one should learn to control the breath.” ~Svatmarama, Hatha Yoga Pradipika. .
Day 7 of the #SpringIntoHips #yogachallenge in #UpavishtaKonasana aka #WideAngleSeatedForwardBend, which is part of the last half of the #AshtangaPrimarySeries. It’s super important to be #mindful and not force yourself into this #asana, and feel the powers of the #breath. ☕️
